We are really sorry to inform you that we have taken the difficult decision to cancel our Symbol UK - Communication for Life course on June 30th. Unfortunately the NUT and ATL have voted in support of strike action on this day which means many of the local schools may be closed or the teaching staff booked on the course would be unable to attend. There is a chance that the strike action may not take place but we won't know this until next week and we have to meet a cancellation deadline. We are committed to providing courses to support children beyond the end of primary school so we have re-arranged this course for Sept 22nd and hope that you will all be able to join us. Please email if you would like me to reserve you a place. If you have sent me payment for this course we will arrange for these to be returned or transferred to the Sept date.
